I can't eat marshmallows anymore

I'm freaking glad I looked this up on another website. I've been looking for the name of this show for some 10 or 15 years now.

There was an episode where the mannequin and (maybe) the security guard got stuck inside the magician's hat. They got hungry so the lady in pink gave them some marshmallows to eat. Well me being very little, I ate a whole bag of marshmallows and got sick. I don't eat them anymore and I'm 25 years old.

I'm just finally glad people won't look at me like I'm complete bat sh*t anymore when I try to explain this show...

I remember that episode!! Weren't they really small to the lady in pink but huge to them? I remember them being colored, but I could be wrong...I was little too!

You know what. I believe you are correct. The marshmallows were different colors now that I think back on it. The bite sized ones at that. Wow, talk about a keen memory... I think all 3 of us get mad wicked cool points for that.

I remember this episode. It was called "Waldo's Hat." It was kind of scary actually.

There was an evil magician. Jeff got shrunk and trapped in the magician's hat.
Sam tossed a few marshmallows into the hat. Jeff stacked the marshmallows on top of eachother and tried to climb out of the hat. He was small so, at that size, the marshmallows were almost as big as he was.
I recall the marshmallows being big, and bouncy and tasty-looking. I get cravings for marshmallows whenever I think about this episode.

I found the script/episode summary: http://todays-special.schuminweb.com/todays-special/episode-guide/1985/waldos-hat.php
